What Our Members Are Saying about the Available Features of the 2017 Dodge Journey
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
- 3rd row seat - Obviously not unique among SUVs, though it is fairly unique among SUVs of this size. While not a place I'd choose to spend a lot of time, it works great to take a larger group to dinner and save the trouble of needing to take two separate vehicles just because you have 5/6/7 people going. 3rd rows as tested during an auto show in the Nissan Rogue or Mitsubishi Outlander as noticably smaller and inferior. Kia Sorento's is noticably more accomodating, however.
